Whichever way it goes, I have the feeling that a lot of Americans will be coming to live with me in Canada for a while.

The lesser of two evils.

This is the first year I'll be able to vote, and you know what? I wouldn't miss it for the world. Less so for the national election (stupid measly three electoral votes) and more so for the locals, but why am I still voting in an age of pure and total cynicism? When young people everywhere are sick and tired of politics and could care less? Why? I'll tell you why: So I can complain properly.

If you aren't allowed to vote, than complain away, but if you can, and you choose not to, than I don't want to hear any whining from you. If you didn't at least throw your opinion into the ring, even if it counts for nothing, than you should have zero right to complain about the outcome.

And being a Vermonter means I love to complain, so why not take the time to do it the right way? ;)

I already voted. Absentee ballots are a great thing. There was a lot of hilarity in my building commons as we read the options. Things like elections in which it says select 3 and there's only 2 running candidates are great for amusement.

Exactly! That's the only reason I vote, really. So I have the right to complain. lol!

shit, i didnt register in time.
i realized the NIGHT before the illinois registration was cut off [27 days before election day] that i wasnt registered to vote in the state i grew up in.

i hope the electoral gets it right this time. wether they're for the guy i WANTED to vote for or not. i hope they're in tune with the popular vote instead of the opposite.

well, whatever happens, wether your man wins or mine, i pray that he does the best for us.

Too late they already do. Let me just bring up the information… A simple search for $39.95 gets you all my moves, credit information, names of spouses and children, some school records and every legal record where my name appears which can tell a lot about you.

Precisely. You want to disappear in a mountain of beaurocratic chickenshit, join the military. They make a habit out of losing your records and you just vanish in a puff of paper work.

Hey where's Airman So-and-so? Uh, I had his paperwork right here… wasn't he reassigned? Nah, his orders, can't you pull them up? The hard copy is probably still down in data entry…

Meanwhile the PX knows everything there is to know about the purchase of that stereo you're late on the payments for…

Not really. For example, I'm not planning to vote, and yet I also plan to complain. Why? Because there is no one I want to vote for. I don't care about the local crap, it's never affected me yet, but as for the presidential candidates, who are the only politicians I do complain about, well, they never give me the option to vote to keep them both out of the White House.
There's no point in voting if you dislike both candidates and would rather not have either in office.
Just my two cents on the whole right to complain thing. I mean, if there is someone you want in office and you don't vote, then you probably shouldn't complain. But if your reason for not voting is because none of the candidates were good enough, then complain away.

I disagree. You could at least vote for Nader. :)

Really, even a joke write-in vote would count for more than not voting. Not voting is just saying meh, that you don't care, and thus shouldn't be allowed to complain. You've just said you do care, because you don't like either candidate, thus where is the harm in voting for someone else? Consider it a protest against the two you don't like. Sure, it may not do anything in the grand scheme of things, but at least it's honest.
